+"""Contains a metaclass and helper functions used to create
+protocol message classes from Descriptor objects at runtime.
+
+Recall that a metaclass is the "type" of a class.
+(A class is to a metaclass what an instance is to a class.)
+
+In this case, we use the GeneratedProtocolMessageType metaclass
+to inject all the useful functionality into the classes
+output by the protocol compiler at compile-time.
+
+The upshot of all this is that the real implementation
+details for ALL pure-Python protocol buffers are *here in
+this file*.
